Sail Away, Sail Away, Sail Away (Orinoco Flow)
Let me sail, let me sail, let the Orinoco flow.
Let me reach, let me beach on the shores of Tripoli.
Let me sail, let me sail, let me crash upon your shore.
Let me reach, let me beach far beyond the Yellow Sea.
Millions for defense; not one nickel for tribute. - President Thomas Jefferson
All hail U.S.S. Constitution!
Her keel was laid in Boston. She was built to defend American shipping from Barbary Pirates on the Shores of Tripoli who demanded tribute and took American merchantmen hostage.
All hail!
